Conformal invariance from non-conformal gravity
We discuss the conditions under which classically conformally invariant models in four dimensions can arise out of non-conformal (Einstein) gravity. As an ‘existence proof’ that this is indeed possible we show how to derive N = 4 super Yang Mills theory with any compact gauge group G from non-conformal gauged N = 4 supergravity as a special flat space limit. We stress the role that the anticipa...
متن کاملThe Renormalization Group flow of unimodular f(R) gravity
Unimodular gravity is classically equivalent to General Relativity. This equivalence extends to actions which are functions of the curvature scalar. At the quantum level, the dynamics could differ. Most importantly, the cosmological constant is not a coupling in the unimodular action, providing a new vantage point from which to address the cosmological constant fine-tuning problem. Here, a quan...
متن کاملOn the renormalization group flow of f(R)-gravity
We use the functional renormalization group equation for quantum gravity to construct a nonperturbative flow equation for modified gravity theories of the form S = ∫ ddx √ gf(R). Based on this equation we show that certain gravitational interactions monomials can be consistently decoupled from the renormalization group (RG) flow and reproduce recent results on the asymptotic safety conjecture. ...
متن کاملQuantum gravity without Lorentz invariance
There has been a significant surge of interest in Horava’s model for 3+1 dimensional quantum gravity, this model being based on anisotropic scaling at a z = 3 Lifshitz point. Horava’s model, and its variants, show dramatically improved ultra-violet behaviour at the cost of exhibiting violation of Lorentz invariance at ultra-high momenta. Following up on our earlier note, arXiv:0904.4464 [hep-th...
متن کاملConformal Invariance and Duality in Self-Dual Gravity and (2,1) Heterotic String Theory
A system of gravity coupled to a 2-form gauge field, a dilaton and YangMills fields in 2n dimensions arises from the (2,1) sigma model or string. The field equations imply that the curvature with torsion and Yang-Mills field strength are self-dual in four dimensions, or satisfy generalised self-duality equations in 2n dimensions. The Born-Infeld-type action describing this system is simplified ...
